Social technologies as we understand them today will look very little like they do today when they finally become integrated into the business environment.

I agree that this is still years to come. Maybe 5 or more before we really see the type of change I'm referring to.

My last gig was at HP where I did social media first for our small business team then our enterprise sales teams. I can tell you that social media is extremely powerful in B2B, just not as sexy as the consumer stuff.

Thanks for the comment, please keep them coming.

While it is already underway in the consumer marketing arena, other segments of business such as B2B will take a lot more education and examples of success in the consumer area before management will consider using social media tools. Blogs will benefit from the general acceptance of websites so people will, in many cases, look upon them more as an extention of websites rather than as a social media tool. As a result, many B2B companies are adding blogs to their websites now.
